...collapse, forcing administrators to close the entire building. Even in the best of cases, says CDG director René Brun, 2E will remained closed for "months, even a year." The crash has even further-reaching business ripples. For years, ADP has sold consulting, engineering, and management services to airports abroad that want to improve or extend their infrastructure. Its acclaimed work in new airport construction in Asia, the Middle East and South America made ADP a front runner for similar contracts in Moscow, Tunisia and Tehran. True, that division accounted for just €23 million of ADP's total income...
...Harvard College Curricular Review has been often criticized, and rightfully so, for its overwhelmingly copycat, “me too” quality. Unabashedly following in the footsteps of curricular reforms at other universities, the curricular review has attempted to spin even the commonplace (study abroad) into a uniquely Harvard innovation (internationalization). Notably, U.S. News and World Report lists 42 schools where at least half its students study abroad, including nearby Wellesley. Even the most foundational change proposed by the review, a shift from the Core Curriculum to distribution requirements giving students “great freedom of choice...
...problems that led to the party's ouster are set to get worse. India needs at least 75 million jobs over the next seven years just to keep unemployment from rising.

But Sonia has yet to articulate a clear economic or foreign policy. She also faces an unforgiving electorate.

...jobs out of the U.S. Now the consultancy has released its first revision of that landmark study, and the news is not comforting. Job losses, it concludes, will hit a lot sooner than expected. By the end of next year, Forrester believes, 830,000 jobs will have gone abroad, mainly to India. That's 242,000 more than it had earlier projected...
...remain competitive. Companies are still under pressure to cut costs in areas like information technology. So the tech sector will be hit hardest--181,000 jobs lost by 2005, or 66% more than earlier projected. Other professions are not immune. About 20,000 legal jobs are expected to move abroad by 2005, a 41% jump over the previous estimate. McCarthy says he does not believe that state and federal proposals to restrict outsourcing will succeed. But companies may eventually be required to report offshoring to the Department of Labor, as they now do factory layoffs...
